- Description
-
Albert Bowtell worked in the accounts department of Salts Mill for 28 years up to its end as a textile mill in 1985. He was very interested in the history of the textiles business and gave illustrated, entertaining talks on the story of Saltaire.
Albert sadly died in 2003 but in 2007 his widow Joyce kindly donated his extensive archive of photographs, original documents, Salts-compay objects and newscuttings. Together, these provide an important insight into the textile industry and Salts Mill. The highlight, perhaps, are over 100 original company photographs of the inside, working mill from the early twentieth century.
